  1. 1. On unequal probability sampling designs

    Author : Anton Grafström; Lennart Bondesson; Sara De Luna; Imbi Traat; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; conditional Poisson sampling; correlated Poisson sampling; entropy; extended Sampford sampling; Horvitz-Thompson estimator; inclusion probabilities; list-sequential sampling; non-rejective implementation; Pareto sampling; Poisson sampling; probability functions; ratio estimator; real-time sampling; repeated Poisson sampling; Sampford sampling; sampling designs; splitting method; unequal probability sampling; Mathematical statistics; Matematisk statistik; Mathematical Statistics; matematisk statistik;

    Abstract : The main objective in sampling is to select a sample from a population in order to estimate some unknown population parameter, usually a total or a mean of some interesting variable. When the units in the population do not have the same probability of being included in a sample, it is called unequal probability sampling. READ MORE

    Abstract : This thesis consists of five papers and treats two finite population sampling methods, viz. the Conditional Poisson and the Pareto .pi.ps sampling schemes. READ MORE

  3. 3. Online Learning for Energy Efficient Navigation in Stochastic Transport Networks

    Author : Niklas Åkerblom; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Thompson Sampling; Online Minimax Path Problem; Multi-Armed Bandits; Online Learning; Online Shortest Path Problem; Machine Learning; Combinatorial Semi-Bandits; Energy Efficient Navigation;

    Abstract : Reducing the dependence on fossil fuels in the transport sector is crucial to have a realistic chance of halting climate change. The automotive industry is, therefore, transitioning towards an electrified future at an unprecedented pace. READ MORE

  4. 4. Algorithmic and Ethical Aspects of Recommender Systems in e-Commerce

    Author : Dimitris Paraschakis; Jan Persson; Malmö universitet; []
    Keywords : recommender systems; e-commerce; recommendation ethics; collaborative filtering; thompson sampling; multi-arm bandits; reinforcement learning;

    Abstract : Recommender systems have become an integral part of virtually every e-commerce application on the web. These systems enable users to quickly discover relevant products, at the same time increasing business value. Over the past decades, recommender systems have been modeled using numerous machine learning techniques. READ MORE

  5. 5. Offline and Online Models for Learning Pairwise Relations in Data

    Author : Fazeleh Sadat Hoseini; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mulit-Armed Bandit; Pairwise Relations; Performance Modeling; Motion Trajectory Clustering; Minimax Distance; Bottleneck Identification; Online Learning; Representation Learning; Memory Efficiency; Concurrent Programming; Thompson Sampling;

    Abstract : Pairwise relations between data points are essential for numerous machine learning algorithms. Many representation learning methods consider pairwise relations to identify the latent features and patterns in the data. This thesis, investigates learning of pairwise relations from two different perspectives: offline learning and online learning. READ MORE
